Guild Wars 2

I can buy on the trading post and search just fine. But I cannot sell on any of my 6 characters. It started this with the last patch. I dual boot into my main OS Windows 7 64 bit and sometimes into Windows 8 Enterprise 64 bit. So I have tried all of the following on both OS with no success.
A) deleting the local.dat file
B) creating a new desktop shortcut with the -repair extension
C) starting the game, clicking on a character, go to trading post and stand in front of a npc , open my inventory and right click sell at at trading post.
D) multiple restarts of system and restarts of game client
E) changing characters
F) I even tried to redownload the game to reinstall (that of course did not work but I did try.

I have searched the forums and the web and other game sites with no luck. I am left with a unusable game as being able to sell items is my only real means of getting sufficient money to purchase gear upgrades. What am I suppose to do now?

run the game with windows 7 compatibility

I had already tried that of course, did not work. Even tried XP, didn’t work either of course. I am in Windows 7 virtually all the time anyhow. I rarely play games on the Win 8 Enterprise Edition. It has worked perfect for months. I have 6 toons. 2 80’s, a 63 and 3 30’s so it has worked fine for some time. Until the last patch. Now none of my toons can sell on the trading post. I might mention I’ve played GW2 since beta. It was my 45th beta. I’ve been playing online games since 94. I normally can figure this stuff out, but this one has me stumped.

Try this, rather than using the shortcut:
Start>AllPrograms>GuildWars2>right-click GW2 and choose “Run as Administrator”

I usually have to do this once after each patch, otherwise I get the blank Sell window. After I do this once and it is successful, then I can use the desktop shortcut thereafter until the next patch messes it up again.

Thanks for the suggestion but I already set all my game executables to “run as administrator” by default for all my games. Been doing it for years. Its the only way for some games to work with some systems. Thanks for trying though. (but I did go ahead and try your suggestion, unfortunatly it didn’t work.)

OK. I was contacted by support and they had me download a couple of files. Nice of them to be so quick for response. Appreciated. It didn’t work but that’s OK. I booted into Windows 8 Enterprise (a server OS) and used some programs there. Rebooted to Win 7, started game and I can now sell. Excellent. What fixed it exactly? I don’t honestly know, I just know it works now. That’s the bottom line,
